Publishers: Media Diversity Institute and Kosovo 2.0
The report on hate speech narratives in Kosovo starts with a narrative analysis of the main target groups of hate speech in Kosovo by providing representative examples, gives insight into the actions taken by
Kosovo institutions and Civil Society to combat hate speech, and analyses the most common words used towards target groups.
While a number of reports have analysed the narratives against migrants, journalists,
politicians and others, this specific report focuses on the narratives against Kosovo
Albanians, Kosovo Serbs/Serbians, women, and the LGBTQ+ community, who were
identified as the most targeted groups of hateful discourse by the media monitoring
carried outduring this project.
